Anyways, I did ask when PR would be banned from this site along way back in this thread.. Does anyone think banishment is too far off?
You going to ban the moderator who kept breaking it? You going to ban Blowout for selling it?

The blame lies with the people crazy enough to buy the product. Same with super break garbage. They continue producing because fools continue buying

I handed my redemption cards directly to Will himself without scratching them.

I will not disclose the price. That's between will and if he is selling others to anyone else. I can understand not wanting to take the remains boxes back to Canada and over the boarder as many others can as well I hope. I was not there for the drawing but I knew it went down....

.I know all the conspiracy theories but the Bryant was given away and I am glad that happened. Guys, I understand how annoyed some of you are but he has a small kid and when I spoke to him on a personal level it's really disheartening that we are low enough to step down to a level and physically threaten him. So please just keep that in mind.

According to Artchie BO hasn't made a profit.
BO should make a statement, it is blowouts fault for this to happen to a certain extent. I mean they allowed for Major League(PR) to advertise on their forum and make it seem like the greatest of products. Blowout should have done more for the community on this one. Mostly everyone will disagree with my last statement but someone had to say it.

Very true. ML/PR/OAB didn't force anyone to buy it and for as much as some people want to call the product a scam/train wreck/criminal offense, there were people buying it as recently as yesterday and a few posts up someone said they would buy another product from ML/PR/OAB. None of this happens without willing consumers.

Blowout sells baseball cards. You cannot hold them accountable for Prospect Rush being garbage. If people willingly spend the money, why blame Blowout? It is the gambling mentality that creates the issues, and that mentality lies solely with the consumer.

Thanks for taking time to clarify
Did you have a winning ticket? If not, you sure seem invested in this drawing. No one seems to care as much as you do...including the winners who seem to have no issues. Of course you didn't have a winner...just another keyboard warrior trying to stir the pot....just ridiculous.

Many things wrong with this post. First off he has the right to talk about whatever he wants even if he's not involved in it. This is a discussion board not North Korea. Second, duh the winners aren't gonna have an issue with it they're getting something. Also he's not the only one who has a problem with what's going on as there are many.

Mick is pretty close to being on point. There may be many but the same 3 or4 drive the thread and get responses. Check the post counts. The one he quoted has almost 200 in the thread and is 2nd right behind the op. No doubt you can have an opinion but take for instance the post pug quoted and the last few. They are all probing posts the provoke a response imho

I would assume that the witchhunt and grasping at air that's been carried out in this thread is what led the guy to downplay the Bryant event. I couldn't blame the guy, no way to know if someone is gonna show up in person and act as crazy as they have on this thread. It's a different world nowadays and when things get outright ridiculous it's best to play it safe.

Yes, along with people complaining that the coin flip wasn't random enough for them. The average IQ in this thread is about 79. And that's with me raising it a bunch.

So many trolls and losers starting a witch-hunt for absolutely zero reason.

Oh, for those who asked why people called them 'trolls?'

Saying X product sucks or is not your bag is fine. Posting and reposting it dozens of times over 100 pages is trolling. Esp the 10+ people making crazy sh!# up about what happened during, and after, the drawing and disregarding the actual eyewitnesses.

This was my thought exactly. I'm sure when Will came up with the idea to give away the Bryant at the National he envisioned a lot of excitement, a big crowd, and plenty of fanfare. When everything turned so toxic, I think he did the smart thing by making the giveaway more private. In this thread there have been numerous threats. It only takes one knucklehead to act belligerent and ruin the day.

Threats?? No one in this thread has ever made -- or even insinuated -- any type of physical threat. What are you talking about?!

Actually with Bob on this one.

I said what I had to say about 56023 pages ago.

However that said. For all of you who vehemently defended PR.

If PR did nothing wrong....Why did he run and hide? That only made it worse and snowball. If he had a clean conscience about the product anyone with half a shred of dignity would have defended themselves to some extent. And anyone with half an argument to that is brain dead.

That said, still takes a knucklehead to trying and claim the 3000000000 billion US Doll Hairs from the Nigerian Prince....yet people do it every day.

Sorry Artchie, I found out I can't read. I do find it amusing though that you got so upset and even used the R word. You should be ashamed.
Also why are you defending this product? Cuz you bought handpicked cases?
What if you got jack like mostly everyone else? Would you still be supporting this guy?
You would though since he has a little kid.

Sure you can. Blowout is great don't get me wrong. But maybe they can be more selective with repack products. PR pulled off a legal Haiku.

How is there not a single person who can supply the card community with a video tape of the drawing?

I'd guess it wasn't done in public. Why not ask the guy here that was actually involved?

I bet his PM box works but he already told exactly how it happened.
